Abstract

A semiconductor device comprises: a first or a second path configured to transmit a first signal which swings between a ground level and a first level, a third path configured to transmit a second signal which swings between the ground level and a second level lower than the first level, a transmitter configured to output received the first signal through the first or second path as the second signal to the third path, and initialize in response to an enable signal, and a receiver configured to output received the second signal through the third path as the first signal through the first or second path, determine level of the second signal through a reference level that is regulated according to a fed-back level of an output terminal thereof, and initialize in response to the enable signal.
